Arditti Quartet

Diotima - Contet

While Tensio is Philippe Manoury's most experimental work to date, a comprehensive survey of technology and poetry (writing of the synthesis, polyphony in heterogeneous times), fruit of many hours spent in the studios and laboratories, Over the sea is Édith de Chizy's first dive into the world of electronics.

Inferno - Synapse

Aléas

Zyklus (1959), by Karlheinz Stockhausen, connects traditional writing with graphical notation and offers freedom to the percussionist; he can choose the beginning and end points within this spiral work.

To Cry

Thomas Adès Recital

Composer, director, pianist, but also professor, Thomas Adès performs not two, but four roles. Scholarly and expressive, his music hypnotizes and makes references to the past through its constructions and citations.

Performance Master Classes

The performance master classes associate the repertoire of the 20th century with recent creation to exceed historic specializations. They offer a privileged access to a selection of mixed music works of reference, where the dimension of the sound projection is an integral part of the performance.

Composition Workshops

The composition workshops are intended for young composers who wish to complete a new work, taking advantage of the experience and advice from guest composers and performers throughout the work sessions and rehearsals.

Final

Thomas Adès, charismatic composer and director, is devoted to the ancient passion like György Kurtág. Directed by the soloists from the Conservatoire de Paris and the Internationale Ensemble Modern Akademie have come together to perform Kurtág's magnificent Messages de feu Demoiselle R.V. Troussova.
